DMSO is applied in the methylthiolation of 1,3‐diynes in the presence of formamidine, K 3 PO 4 at 130 °C. This reaction gives 1,4‐disubstituted (but‐1‐en‐3‐ynyl)methylthioethers in good to high yield with acceptable Z / E selectivities. Both ( Z )‐ and ( E )‐methylthioethers are readily separable. The synthesis of 3‐iodothiophene derevative from ( Z )‐methylthoenter is explored as well.
